[Duke]

Prediction 0-2 a Ricketts brace.

[Four Oaks Saddler]

First away game of the season for me.

I reckon a narrow 2-1 win. Akinfenwa will score for them (if playing, obviously), as he always seems to cause us problems. Zaaboub and Bradley for us.

[tape66]

1-1 another point away

Tinned to be in a mood on realising that Iceland have run out of Half Lobsters.

[King Crimson]

1-1 another point away

I agree.

[Exile]

1-2 to the Saddlers.

Tape66 to squelch out the theme from Van Der Valke at half time, using one cupped hand and an armpit.

[WFC_Rob]

1-1 for me too.
Williams to score.

[Young_Tong]

Good mate of mine at work is a cobblers fan who says his team are so low on morale right now that we shouldn't be looking at anything less than a win. Northampton are on a downwards slide while I'm cautiously optimistic that things are on the way up for us.

I'll go for a 0-3 win, Ricketts, Deeney and Nicholls.

Zaaboub to cover Wigfield's "Saturday Night" including dance in the centre circle.

1-2 to the Saddlers.

Their manager had a go at the team after last weeks defeat.
Players will be dropped etc
Just a short ride for me and my boy.
Looking forward to the game.

0-2 Saddlers. Zaaboub to Deeney and Nicholls to Ricketts. MARK MY WORDS.

A bit harsh, Exy. Got to be worth 7 or 8, if only for the optimism.

[Evo Boozy Saddler]

Be proactive! Name the time and the place, or ask where everyone's going and when they'll be there!!

[BathSaddler]

Northampton 0 Walsall 1. Deeney.

Willy Nilly & OldPenkSaddler to celebrate the goal by whipping their tops off and singing "7 Tears" by the Goombay Dance Band.

Exactly my thoughts EBS. 1-0 to the Saddlers with that man Deeney again.

For our younger viewers who may not know the tune it went a little something like this -

De de de deeer de de deeeer de de de de de deeeeeeer, de de de deeeeer de de de de deeeeeeeeer, de de de deeeeer de de de de de deeeeeeeeer, de de de de de de de de deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer!

[tinned]

1 - 1 Deeney.

Sheffield Saddler & Wendy (Barry) Mumford to announce their engagement on the electronic scoreboard at halftime.

Cobblers 1 - 1 Walsall
Akinfenwa for them, Ricketts for teh Saddlers.

Walsall to be down to 10 for the second half after a passing UFO nabs Palmer for the good of the galaxy, leaving the ref confused as to whether Walsall should be allowed to bring on a replacement.

[Dynamo Zuffle]

A tough game given there home record but for some reason I fancy us to get a win down there. I reckon 3-1 to the supper saddlers with tape to show off a rather embarrassing birth mark on his rectum as Troy gets his hat trick.

[We-ARE-Walsall]

Northampton away. That Kit !

Down the gym today then my wife comes in and tells me that Walsall are coming to the golf club for their lunch before the game.
Got a picture with Chris Hutchings and Alex Nichols got me a load of autographs for my son
Great group of lads
Everyone looks really happy in the sunshine
Just left them as they go on to Northampton
We are going to win today
